Also suggest a moldable, foldable oil drain funnel (here: https://amzn.to/4lc1pAR) to wrap around the crossmember for when you take off the oil filter. Even though there's a lip and drain under the filter, it's too far back and drips oil on the crossmember. This redirects it and cleans up nice...
Last time I was in at the dealer they said that they had finally developed the fix but that it was going to take a while to “make a million of whatever they need to swap out and get everything ready.” I’m not in a rush but would like to get it done before next winter because apparently it’s not...
That’s how it works. You enter your ZIP Code on the Costco page and it shows you all the participating dealers around you. My local dealer is not on that list because they run their own discount parts store online but a different dealer a few miles away is on that list. I would actually just...
Many people are not aware that if you’re a Costco member, you can go on their website and under Auto Program there’s a look up for local dealers for all brands. You find a local dealer, and Costco will send you a 15% off coupon for parts, accessories, and service that is reusable and also usable...

Similar survey. They proposed $1k for the compressor and I’m like nope! The box is almost identical to the LastBoks I got. I have a tonneau cover and honestly it’s one of the best accessories I’ve gotten for the truck since I bought it. Looks like it’s on sale for now on Amazon...
I don’t know the exact weight. They’re made of carbon steel so nice and solid. I was easily able to install these myself so not that heavy - relatively speaking. They still look brand new after 7 months now (and winter driving).
Was in for my 10K mile service today. The service and shop manager took photos and submitted to Toyota for guidance. I'll update when I hear something.
In all these pics the paint in that area looks gnarly - although I know it's cosmetic and we can't see it with the doors closed. That it's only on one side and the other is fine, I'm surprised its been missed by that many Quality Control cycles.
Was washing today and even though I’ve probably washed it 20 times since I got it, this is the first time I’ve noticed that they missed painting an area. This is front passenger door open, looking towards the hood. Not a big deal, but just curious if anybody else has the same missing paint since...

Evap system self check. This also happens on the 4Runners.
My four MUST HAVES for oil changes are this bucket from Amazon, this flexible funnel, oil refill funnel, and this cardboard from Costco (and I assume Sam’s Club if that’s where you shop).
The bucket – https://amzn.to/437jHNj– is great for catching the literal jet of oil that comes out. My first...
I have been looking for a way to "hide" some items in the truck and came upon this hidden center console storage box. It was super easy to install (took a few minutes) and looks like it's always been there. It's got a lot of room in it - will easily fit a large wallet plus other stuff you might...
